If the full text of your research cannot be made public in arrow@UniSA, there will still be a record for your work, and there may be options to expose a pre-print or link to the publisher’s website with full-text options for authorised users. If you are unsure of the copyright policy relating to your material, please contact the University Copyright Officer.
As the author or creator of a work, you automatically own copyright to it. When you submit the work for publication, however, you may be asked to assign copyright to the publisher. The Australian Copyright Council’s Information Sheet G24 provides an overview of rights transfer issues.
It is worthwhile to read a contract carefully before signing, as you may be able to negotiate to retain some or all of your rights as the original copyright owner. The ACRL Scholarly Communication Toolkit web page contains several useful strategies and sample texts for amendments to agreements.
For older works produced by UniSA staff, the University is continuing to endeavour to trace the copyright owner(s) and in the meantime this item has been reproduced here in good faith. We would be pleased to hear from copyright owner(s).
If you believe that copyright material is available on this site in such a way that infringes copyright, please contact arrow@UniSA

As of April 2007 the repository currently contains 2,747 records. The majority of these have come from research submitted to Research and Innovation Services in 2004-2005 for reporting to DEST. In addition all of UniSA’s theses available via ADT have also been included. Full text is available for 246 of these records.
A separate project is digitising UniSA research - or establishing links to the published version for inclusion in ARROW. The above content has been digitised and over time it is intended that most records will also have links to the corresponding full-text where permitted.
This is the first production version of ARROW@UniSA. Not all included material has been loaded or fully indexed as yet and there remain permission issues to resolve before the full content can be made available.
Information about content guidelines is available from the Guidelines page.
arrow@UniSA accepts all forms of digital content including text, images, video and audio files.
Examples include:UniSA staff and students in postgraduate degrees by research who possess an active UniNet account may deposit research publications into arrow@UniSA.
You may use the submission form to deposit the research yourself, or you may contact arrow@unisa staff with the details of your research if you would like for us to enter it for you.
As part of the national ARROW project, research housed in arrow@UniSA becomes more visible to the world at large, and helps to increase UniSA’s research profile and impact.
Researchers reap these benefits:Yes, your research may be in more than one location. The repository is intended for long-term and sustainable storage of University research; materials in arrow@UniSA will be accessible even if a course page changes.
Yes, the repository will contain records for these research outputs. Where copyright permits, the full text will be ingested and for published works which cannot be ingested due to publisher restrictions, the DOI (Digital Object Identifier) to the published version will be added.
In late 2006, Library staff collected Web of Science citation counts and set up citation alerts where possible. It is planned to incorporate citation counts and harvest the citation alerts to automatically update citation counts.
